Nationwide epidemiological survey of primary Sjogren’s disease in Japan using the National Database of Designated Intractable Diseases
Primary SjD in Japan exhibits significant heterogeneity influenced by demographic and serological factors. Male sex and specific autoantibodies correlate with higher systemic activity, whereas Hashimoto's disease is associated with reduced severity. These findings elucidate the need for personalised management and longitudinal studies.
